CeRegEditor NEW ver 0.0.5.2, with regular expressions - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hello,
I'd like to introduce new registry editor CeRegEditor for WindowsCE, WindowsMobile
It works on desktop PC but operates on PDA's registry.
Main features:
- keys/values create and edit
- fast search
- export/import keys to/from REG file
- create "image" registry with compare and restore service
- free for private and commercial use
- registry compare to CAB or REG files
- open REG/RGU, CAB, HV as regular registry, with all edit functions available
...and many more
link to web site: http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl?lang=en
link to software: http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/ceregedit_setup.exe
It is still during test period, but basic features are well tested and stable
It is Polish software but with english interface
edit
If You find any error in the application or mistake in English interface please send an email to [email protected] or write it within thread

nice one! thanks!

It looks very nice! thanks

Hi!
Thanks a lot! The compare service makes it even easier to build OEM packages when kooking ROMs. Great software!
Regards,
PK

nice app.

good tool, many of cookers want to edit the registries using the PC

Nice software I have one suggestion: since this works on the desktop, one feature that would be neet was that if we install a CAB, it detects what's changed on the PPC, regarding the registry. That would be great to know what are the registry keys needed for the instalation of OEM packages!

You can use compare tool embedded into CeRegEditor.
First, create registry image(Images->Create image or F2 key) and after cab instalation perform compare registry, Images->Compare registry. It will show only differences/changes between the image and the current registry
I hope this will be useful for You

Great Work
Great work, sounds cool...thanks !

Yes, very thanks so much!

NIce Progie thanx

New version 0.0.2.2
+ added UNICODE support for export/import data to/from REG file
+ fixed header in REG file. The string in header changed to REGEDIT4. Previous string was not compatible with some other registry tools (WinCE Cab Manager)
+ fixed format of path to directory/file in REG file.
...and some minor fixes

Thank you, I was using Mobile Registry Editor to edit registry directly from Desktop but your app look nice

New version 0.0.3.0 available
Some fixes and new features!
Now, compare tool handles CAB and REG files
So, it is possible to compare registry to CAB file or REG file, CAB to CAB, CAB to REG, REG to registry image, etc.
It's possible to check what changes will be made by CAB before CAB instalation
Update details: http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/index.php?id=4&lang=en
Download: http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/ceregedit_setup.exe

cool... I will check this out soon.
@mdziedzic, curious how you are implementig the cab compare function... are you just looking at reg entries stored in the cab? Cos sometimes the complicated ones involve self-registering dlls and setup.dll files that make reg entries also. Prime examples of this are voice command, mark all as read, and some SPB apps. For those we always have to do a reg diff before/after cab install to see what the setup.dll did (or see the self-registered dll additions).
I have been wondering if it's possible to write an app that examines a setup.dll to see what reg entries it would create. So far I don't know of any way to do that other than reg dump->install cab->reg dump->compare.
Anyway your app will be very useful! Thanks for your hard work.

congratz.

I think it is not possible! Each developer/provider creates it's individual setup.dll for CABs. Each DLL could has different structure (written in C++ or Pascal). Trying to "decode" setup.dll will be always "guessig"!

IMO, for CABs with setup.dll or exe instalators it's the best metod. In CeRegEditor, just create registry image (F2)-> do instalations-> compare registry with image(F3). After compare You can save differences to REG file

New version 0.0.3.1 available
http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/ceregedit_setup.exe
Updates:
- fix in CAB-> REG conversion

great looking ap...
I particularly like the little status monitor...nice touch.

It would be great if you could also map registry files from a dumped rom. This way you could easily extract registry settings from other phones without the need of the actual device. At this moment you still need the phone.
is this possible

Where is the registry file (not default.fdf)?

Hello.
I am trying to find a file with the initial registry plus last modifications or at least an extra file in which there would be additional modifications to the initial registry files. The reason is that I want to put in registry a lot of DLLs (about 32) to make a program work, I can´t do it by hand It would take me years.

In the Kiitchen you can do this by useing a file with the addreg extension.
You just have to ensure, that it will be used...

there are 2 ways in which windows ce loads registry values:
1) via default.fdf, which you can edit using fdf2reg.pl land reg2fdf.pl from my romtools ( this is processed by filesys.exe at coldboot )
2) via mxip_*_100.rgu, which are unicode files, and can be edited with most editors. and which are processed by regupdater.exe
but I don't really know how this works.
but I think you need a registry editor, hmm. which now I look for it, I thought phm regedit would be able to do this, but it is not yet implemented there.
so someone should write or find one.

deleting registry keys automatically within a cab file

Hello professionals ;-)
i have to delete some registry keys during an softwareinstall with a cab file.
Can anybody tell me how to make an installationfile (like *.cab ore something else) deletes some keys in the registry!
whatfor?
i want to install some programs (like pocket plus) and make some configuration during cab file installation. so i looked into the registry what changes when i configurate pocket plus.
as i noticed there where som keys changed i can overwrite with the new values BUT there are some registry keys deleted also. How get them out???
is there any way ??
Have a look at creating a custom setup.dll file to include in the cab file.
You can certainly delete registry entries using it.
I don't know about deleting registry using cab files.
I think there is only options to allow or not to replace a registry key if exists during install.
Here a good link for .cab files Cab files
Apart that you can make your own install from PC to Pocket using RAPI. With that no problem to delete keys, copy files, add new keys ...
want to delete some keys bevore install
Thank's for your tips!

is there more information about this ?
how it works?
how to do?
as i looked at the CABFiles Website this looks very complicated to me ;-(
i am an absolute beginner in developing software!
i need an easy way to delete some regkeys during installation.
I think you can use the excellent scripting utility called nScriptM to achieve your goal. Simply run a search on this in google and you will come across a number of resources including the download location.

Instruction on how to generate working .reg files on WM5 ?

Hello,
can anyone tell me if there a good instruction somewhere about producing an executable .reg file for the WM5 platform (Qtek 9000 PPC as well as Qtek 8300 Smartphone) ?
It should contain modifications to the registry which should be applied upon exectuting this file.
(With thge help of a second such file I'd like to reset the initial reg values back.)
Thanks in advance.
well
just look inside a .reg file with notepad.
example:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.2bp]
"Content Type"="image/bmp"
"Default"="bmpimage"
"PerceivedType"="image"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.3gp]
"Default"="3gpfile"
that's it...
im sure u understood what should be done...
To make it executable you need to write a custom app or import the reg settings into a cab and load the cab.

How do i make a .reg file delete a value in the registry ??
I think you insert a - before the key
I'll have to google to confirm, but I'm cooking right now

Yes, just this would be my prime question:
Is there any documentation on how to make it executable by "transforming it into a cab file" ?

Have you tried with ceregeditor?
Search the forums for a tool called "Kheb" it can take full registery dumps and diffs if you want to track changes.
Stick the task manager in windows, then run the shortcut. You need this folder, otherwise the dump will go to my docs (-storage card-my backups-registry). The registry will be dumped as a text file. You can edit the path in the shortcut. The task manager has to have the correct name, or else it won't work.

Hi Miniterror,
I've dumped the full registry using Registry Workshop form the PC.
It's really easy to use and allow you to change the registry easily from the PC via Activesync.

[SOLVED] Resco Explorer in ext package

Does anybody has Resco Explorer in ext package?
Tried to do it but i miss resco registry and resco ftp.
Thanks!!
What exactly do you want to get? I have it (selfmade).... But it's free for sure....
One more thing - I use OEM regular structure - not EXT (For OsBuilder). It's a normal package - with rgu and dsm.... Registry is a separate cab - you should add it to the package. FTP is a part of explorer - just added features.

Well, in Resco site there is one cab for all the subprograms that are included in the resco 2010 8.10 version.
It is this cab I tried to convert to ext package.Everyrhing works except registry function.
Thanks anyway.
Attached is the app.reg (renamed to app.txt because of forums limitations) file that I use for Resco Explorer with FTP and Registry plugins added.
I didn't clean it up so it also contains the keys and values for the options and settings that I prefer having.
For future reference, I had the same issue as you at first then I used a tool called Kheb to monitor the registry changes that happen when I install cabs and customize everything. Kheb can also make diffs between different registry snapshots and even generate OEM packages based on such diffs.
I did apply your REG file, but Resco Registry not work yet, the problem is a SETUP.DLL in to the Resco Explorer CAB, it contains a secret instructions and I believe that is impossible to open it, anyway I saw some cooks with Resco Explorer and Registry in their ROMs, it's obvious that they know the secret.
I also want to know.....pleaseeeee

Make the package with cab to package software (there is in all kitchens) and then replace the reg and app.dat files with the ones attached and cook it.Works for me.
The idea goes to MusicMonk but his attached file doesnt work for me.
Just use Kheb like MusikMonk suggested; it will capture all of the reg keys that are installed by the setup.dll. You can also look in the setup.dll with notepad and probably see the keys that are installed.
If you're trying to backup you registration info, it's stored in a file in \windows called wmtrigger.dat. All of Resco's registration codes are stored in that file, so if you have several of their apps, that's all you need.

I made a CAB file from the original Resco Explorer CAB, I deleted all files except SETUP.DLL and later run it and VOILA!!! the Resco Registry works !!!!!
Unfortunately I don't need it, I need the secret instructions in SETUP.DLL, I did open it using UltraEdit but I can't find nothing.
try this it should work, but your still gonna need the code as this is not cracked
Thank you, mate, but I found the secret reg keys in the setup.dll file. I used CeRegEditor to create a registry image, later install the cab with setup.dll and I created a image again, and finally I compared the first and second image to detect the differences.
I made a new reg and all works now
Thank you very much mates
fully working resco explorer package
Fixed some shortcuts added rtoday plugin, resco update, task manager that was missing and ftp in previous packages and is attached below.
Of course it needs the usual registration process.

Have you managed to have in built registration code in it so that you dont have to feed the registration key after the installation?

The registration code is in the wmtrigger.dat file in windows folder which is created after registration.
So you have to copy this folder after registration and put it in your kitchen.

All Resco products write registration to one file It's well known for ages and it's no need to discover anything. So if you decide to use several resco products - you should install and register them all and then save the summary wmtrigger.dat - it will be one for all installed Resco-s..... And for sure - system User name should be the same for all your roms - it's also fixed in that file...
One more tip: if you occasionally decide to use cracked resco products - you will get a conflict if you use for example one legal and one cracked program simultaneously in one rom. So better use all registered.

You can use sktracker in your phone.
This program traces the changes in registry and files so if you create a snapshot with the program and then install or register applications or change the options and user settings in applications (you better do it program by program) you can easily find the changes and apply them each time you change your rom.
I apply all mods with sashimi but there are other choices also.

I used to find the registry part of any cab or software by saving the registry and comparing the one before and after with the help of registry workshop on my PC, but did not know that there exists a utility with which wmtrakker.dat"" type of new file creation can also be found out.
Thanks a lot bro!!!
It's very good
Does anyone know how to backup Resco Customizations ( e.g ToollBar Shortcuts etc ? )
